Workshop Update #2

First, Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours.  Now a bit of an apology.  We knew that we were in a time crunch when we scheduled this workshop.  We have a lot of things in a holiday season time crunch, trying to be respectful of everyone's holiday season while doing things we feel need to be done given the timeline leading up to SMB 2014.

WooHoo! 100 Summit Seekers

Sue Bastian just became the 100th Summit Seeker.  It's definitely hard to believe we hit 100 that fast.
